Metadata classes

• Animal Model: rat, ferret, guinea pig, cat
• Brain Area: somatosensory cortex, visual cortex, cortex, parietal cortex
• Neuron Region: single compartment
• Neuron Type: pyramidal cell
• Runtime Q: Q3
• Subtype: low threshold

Metadata generic

• Age: various
• Authors: A Destexhe
• Comments: Low threshold calcium current in thalamocortical cells, based on data of huguenard & mccormick (1992), written by a destexhe 1993, modified 1995. Comes from several previous studies, we use destexhe et al. (1998, 2001), model no. 3817, as ancestor model. The file is identical to the ancestor model. Modeling study based on several previous experimental results that are considered in the paper.
• Runtime: 7.867
• Temperature: Model has temperature dependence, default at 36 deg C. q10 assumed to be 3 for inactivation.
